Manuka Products for Skin Conditions
Proven to work as a medical grade treatment for certain skin conditions and wounds, especially burns. These are the products you can try if you're looking for something more natural.
This product offers a high chance of finally finding something that treats your chronic skin condition without using steroid based creams.
Manuka Skin Saver | Non-toxic Cream For Psoriasis-Prone Skin
I've shown a bunch of their products as some are salves are some are creams. If your skin is very dry due to the weather then a salve would offer more moisture but it can feel greasy. These products have a lot of reviews on social media.
Sven's Island
Yes it is on the expensive side but for people that are already on so many different antibiotics this can be a good option. Japan has done trials with this gel on burns to leg ulcers and it has worked well to keep out bacteria and heal these wounds.
Mānuka Wound Ointment
If you have a problem with the skin of your eyelids being sensitive due to the weather, look into this. We have to be careful with the skin around our eyes which is why I recommend this when I can. I try not to go with hydrocortisone anymore since yo...
Optimel Eyelid Cream: Manuka Honey for Dry Eyes
Sometimes you will accidentally be burnt for standing outside in the Australian sun for a minute too long. This is what I put on my mildly sunburnt face to cool the skin and give it the best chance at not shedding.

Cosmetic skincare products wth manuka properties
Manuka is a highly sought-after product for tourists visiting from Asia. In the last 10 years I've seen demand for more and more skincare with good amounts of Manuka added to them. Take a look into these products.
Here in Aus/NZ this brand is well known for its products blend of natural ingredients, including manuka honey extract. This oil is very good for the neck and chest. I can't use it on my face due to breakouts but maybe you can.
Replenishing Facial Oil
The bee venom is extracted by having the bees attack a panel of glass meaning their stingers won't be damaged. They swarm the glass thinking it's a threat. Bee venom is popular in moisturiser in New Zealand.
Bee Venom Moisturiser, 100 g
It is expensive for 5mls but one drop will go a long way. Add one drop on top of your usual moisturiser in the jar, then mix that top layer and let it sit on top to absorb. Come back to it later. This was made to be diluted and used with other produc...
Full Spectrum Mānuka Extract
Maunka that you can put over your lips
Since the skin over the lips are so thin it's easy for them to dry out. Putting a balm with manuka propolis can help those lips that have already cracked.
This lip balm may not have a luxurious scent but the reviews look very positive. For those of us that find it hard getting a lip balm that will fix our dry lip skin, this could be a winner.
A.M.S Mānuka Honey Lip Balm
It has a good UMF rating of 20+ which is close to being medical grade. This is a very good product and is so damn affordable. Made in Australia, so the manuka is different to NZ species but still has beneficial properties.
